Join host Alicia Lee on today’s episode of the Faithly Stories podcast, where she meets with Matt Davis, President and Chief Pastoral Officer of Ministry Transitions, to explore how faith and resilience can guide us through seasons of profound change.

Raised in a Messianic Jewish congregation and called to pastoral ministry early in life, Matt spent over two decades leading churches in Southern California, where he experienced both the joys and challenges of spiritual leadership. When it came time to step away from the pulpit, Matt discovered a new calling to walk alongside pastors and ministry leaders navigating seasons of transition.

From embracing fresh starts and working unconventional jobs, to building a life rooted in storytelling and community, Matt’s journey reflects the courage to redefine one’s identity beyond titles and embracing God’s purpose in every chapter. Today, through Ministry Transitions and his Life After Ministry podcast, he equips fellow leaders to face change with grace, clarity, and hope.
